Time to treat meself to a GBA however I have just noticed that they do a neat 'SP' version. Has anyone got one and are they better than the original GBA - Can the ROMS still be flash-linked across 
Cheers

don't know about the roms - but i bought my daughter an SP the other week - very nice bit of kit, integral rechargeable batteries and backlight etc.
I got her a game called broken sword 2 - then the other night i saw the same game in the video shop for a fiver so treated myself - its quite a good game for an old W95 effort.

The missus has a new SP and an original GBA.
SP is a lot better in that it has a light. Other than that, not much difference other than ergonomics. Light is a godsend though.
Dunno what this flash-linking malarky is though that you mention
Just looked up the flash-linking thing
Dunno whether it's possible with the SP, can't see why not as it still uses the same cartridges from the normal GBA.

Sounds good to me!
I believe that it is possible to download or even buy a DVD containing 100's of GBA/GBC roms - These can be flash linked across to your portable via your PC
This system is purely used for 'Backing Up' your carts of course
